Commands

This page deals with the Commands options for DPM - Assembly Process Planner and Manufacturing System Definition.
 

Assignment Assistant

The options listed under Assignment Assistant apply to the Assignment Assistant and Assignment Assistant for AST in DPM - Assembly Process Planner, and to the Assignment Assistant for Resources in Manufacturing System Definition.

When the Display Fastener Geometry in 3D Viewer check box is selected, the fastener geometry appears in the 3D view when Assignment Assistant is open, as well as in the Assignment Assistant 3D Preview window. If the check box is not selected, the fastener geometry only appears in the 3D Preview window, which speeds up the product representation updates, and consequently, both opening and closing the Assignment Assistant.

When the Preview Parts in Design Position check box is selected, the parts appear in the 3D Preview window in their design position; otherwise, they appear in their current position in the 3D view.

DBy default, neither check box is selected.

Part Assignment
The options listed under Part Assignment apply to the Assignment Assistant and Assignment Assistant for AST in DPM - Assembly Process Planner.

When the Check Part Assignment with Process in the Manufacturing Hub check box is selected, V5 checks parts to see whether they are assigned to processes in the Manufacturing Hub.  If any part is assigned to a process in the Manufacturing Hub, but the process is not loaded in V5, then V5 still recognizes that the part is assigned to a process, even though it does not show the process. As a result, the part is not listed under None in the process list in Assignment Assistant; it is treated as though it is already assigned.

If the check box is cleared, a part assigned to a process in the Manufacturing Hub only appears under the None process list in Assignment Assistant.

Licensing
  If you do not have a Manufacturing Hub license, the option is not available.

DThe default is that this option is selected.
